Reflections on the lighter side

  • Relative

    If adventure is taking photographs in a war zone, then I want security. If security is sixteen hours of television everyday, then I want adventure. If adventure is photographing deer in the local arboretum, maybe I’m in. If security is a safe neighborhood, that sounds good. If adventure is touring the country, sign me up.… Continue reading

  • Cat and Dog

    I have a chair, my favorite chair, where I sit to watch television or read. For years, I have had to fight with the cat for my chair. He often waits for me to enter the room and pounce on the chair before I can get to it. It’s a game he plays. Often I… Continue reading

  • Scratching My Head

    I’m scratching my head trying to imagine what gets better with age. I have aches and pains all of the time. I’m not as strong as I used to be. Many of my friends have passed away. My kids accuse me of telling the same stories over and over. The pile of pills I take… Continue reading

  • Boring

    I like to do the daily prompts, but what time I go to bed? How dull. I will say I was a night owl once, going to sleep in the early morning, like 2 or 3 am and sleeping in to 10 am. But as I age, I almost never make it past Midnight and… Continue reading

  • Pets

    I have a favorite chair that I sit in to watch television. For quite a while I have been battling my cat for it. We recently acquired a new dog, who also likes me chair. I’m losing the battle. Looks like I need to find a new spot to sit. Continue reading

  • Cat

    I have a cat. He’s a white and gray long hair cat. I know cats like to be high up, but I don’t like him on certain spots, like the dining room table where we eat or on my bed where he plays with my feet when I’m trying to sleep. Today, he snuck into… Continue reading

  • Thoughts On Aging

    They say what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. I’m not sure that applies to aging. I’m dating myself, but my daughter told me I should pick a better word to describe food in my book, than “victuals.” It seems I have dated myself to the fifteen century. Yes, I’m getting up there. Humidity is… Continue reading

  • Simplify

    I read a book recently about simplifying lifestyle. Once I had a high stress job, but I left it long ago, so I’m already on the simpler path. Another area is clutter. I am always reducing clutter. I’m an artist and a pack rat, so I see possibilities in many things for future art projects.… Continue reading

  • What I Like

    I may be too modest to believe I am authority on anything, because no matter what I know, there is always more to learn. Of course, what I may say I know is phrased as “I know a little something about…” I know a littles something about the law because I was a corporate lawyer… Continue reading

  • Hand Made

    I certainty tried to be a traditional romantic when I courted my wife, candy and flowers. She thought chocolate was fattening and flowers made her sneeze. I tried cards, but she thought cards were too expensive for the amount of use they got. She was very practical. I got much farther when I made my… Continue reading
